Are tv show comments treated as keywords automatically? I ask because I have a custom field (listcombine([keywords],[filename (name)]) which should just search keywords and filenames. But I'm noticing that some tv shows are appearing in my search even when the word I'm looking for is nowhere to be found in the MC keywords or filename.

Eg: search: paint
Result
\\LIZZY\Media (M)\Workshop Shows\New Yankee Workshop-(Taunton Chest)-2008-12-20-0.mpg
keywords: dresser;projects

but the comment field is this:
Norm builds his version of the Taunton Chest out of poplar and calls on a decorative artist to copy the paintwork from the original design.

I don't think there's anything automatic.  Perhaps the search is including the files for some other reason?

what does the custom tag field look like when you open it in the tagwindow?

That's what I thought as well. I stared at the rule forever and just couldn't see it until just now.

[seachcal]="stain","sanding","grit","paint","brushes","antiquing","distressing","finishing","finishes","rubbing out","waterbase","sand-through","Target Coatings","dyes"

I was missing the 'r' in [seaRchcal].

Which is odd. You would think that since searchcal without the r doesn't exist as a field, that I would have gotten lots of results (like the entire database, perhaps) or none at all. And yet the difference between the mispelled field and real field was 27 items, all of which had at least one of the search terms in the comment field.  

I didn't think MC was that smart (to give me close results in spite of my mistakes)!
